Well it hasnt really been summer weather latley... not the usual hot swealtering heat that we normally have.. instead im in jeans and yesterday i was even in a jumper what the??? LOL...

Last sunday we had a massive storm hit us and lets just say that i was not a happy chappy.. i was in tears... I was on my way to my grandparents house when the storm hit us... it was the most scariest driving experience ever in my entire driving life... the hail was the size of golf balls they were huge... here is a pic of them

some of them were even bigger then these ones... my mum took these photos to show the insurance companies as we had some damage done to our house also... our back pergola area where the stairs are was smashed by a falling tree branch and the roof on our pergola was cracked in lots of places so now we cant sit out there if its raining cause it dosnt do much lol

and this is a pic of the huge tree that fell down in our street.. this tree is about 5 houses up from ours and it crashed across our whole street lucky we have 2 ends we can get in and out of our street from...

but the worse part was my brand new car... i was in tears.. i mean there was nothing i could do but sit there and cry lol.. the roof, bonnet and passenger sides of my car have huge dents in them.. dont know the final damage cost yet (only got a hold of the insurance company today) so wont know the extent of it till i go and get some quotes to fix it... but its so sad my poor car...

not a very good pic but you can see some of the dents in the bonett... so hope its fixable...

other then that not alot happening around here... having done much scrapping i really need to but just no mojo what so ever... anyone send me any please... oh yeah and i really must go and do the rest of my christmas shopping... maybe sunday i might venture out and do it or friday if i feel like it lol.. i dread heading to the shops...

ohhh i do have some exciting news to share but not yet lol will share definatly when i can...lol love keeping everyone in suspense ...

well must go and get organised to see if i can scrap i hope that i can i running behind in my christmas journal and really want to keep caught up... off to see what i can do
